Hello, I am new to this forum, I am 9 days on from my 2nd mastectomy which I had done for symmetry. I recovered so well from my first, 3 years ago that I am totally shocked at the way I am feeling now. I don't have a lot of pain, just the odd stab, more like an electric shock so that's not too bad but after feeling quite normal, on day 4 I suffered the most horrendous bout of constipation. It was gruesome! I am now taking lactulose and hoping it doesn't happen again as it was so painful.
Now I am getting a weird feeling in my back passage, a sort of fluttery, twitching thing from time to time, has anyone else had this? It's frightening the daylights out of me.
I am also very swollen under my dressing almost like a new boob growing.Could this be because I didn't have drains this time?
If anyone can relate to any of this and put my mind at rest? I am crying a lot and so stressed. Thank you.
